LSOT usually stands for Lump Sum on Termination - not sure about the other one though.

ExSmoggie

Actually , as a guess I'd probably say C/E Loading would be casual employee loading.

Ring payroll. But I think C/E loading relates to you being casual. ie you get a higher rate than normal teachers because you don't get paid during the holidays.

Jen1977ni

O? whats that mean?! lol

Eligible termination payment (ETP)
A lump sum benefit (payment) made by an employer to an employee, as a result of the termination of employment or after the death of the person who was an employee.

That will be your accrued long service leave, paid out at the end of a casual contract. This is often included in the lump sum on termination (LSOT) pay section on a payslip.

Jen1977ni

Ahh ok, unfortunately my 10 years service in the UK counts for nothing when it comes to leave, aw well, 7 years to go lol

Jen you would not be familiar with Long service leave being from NI, really if you work for the same employer for 10 years continuously you get paid 2 months paid leave and one month paid leave for each additional five years service. Good eh!!

But I don't think LSOT really has any has any thing to do with Long service leave as you cant benefit from LSL if you leave before 10 years and you cant be paid out on it unless you are terminated after 10 years. Probably more to do with recreational Leave and Leave loading.

By the way leave loading is an extra 17.5% of you normal pay on top when you are on leave. (handy as you usually spend more money when your not working)

Teachers

Teachers do not accrue recreation leave but are granted concessional leave during school vacation periods. However, teachers who work temporarily in non-teaching roles qualify to take recreation leave in accordance with the provisions of this module and at times mutually convenient to them and their supervisor.

Teachers have a notional entitlement to four weeks annual leave that accrues progressively throughout the year. A loading of 17.5% is paid on this notional allocation in December of each year.


When a teacher ceases employment they are entitled to a lump sum on termination payment (salary and loading) based on the number of days from the start of the school year for which they have been paid. The salary component of this payment is reduced by the number of school vacation days that have occurred during the period.

Doesn't work that way in NSW. Super goes into your super account and no termination pay out. Think I like the NSW system better.

ABCDiamond

Here in QLD, according to the Queensland Teachers Union, for CASUAL workers:

The super for casual workers in all states will go into a super account.

But Casual teachers, at least in QLD it appears, even get long service leave payments

man_called_Horse

Yeah I see now

Gibbo

In NSW if you work any number of days a week,for more than a month, in a postion, you are considered to be a temporary employee and get LSL and sick pay. Casuals who work, can't remember how many days a year , get the 17.5% holiday loading at the end of the year. Still prefer NSW.

Some of the teachers told me it was after 7 years service you get the equivalent of one term, fully paid off, if u want it. Aw well, I don't know if my teaching career will last another 7 years anyways, looking for a new 'direction'...and have a few ideas, the main one requiring citizenship, whichhhhh if I can prove I'd be able to do the job, I could have fast-tracked to just two years instead of 4!
